Add a password protection to an existing pdf file using PDFKit iOS

问题

I wanted to add a password protection to an existing pdf file in my application.

Here's my code:

    if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "pdf_file", ofType: "pdf") {
        let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: path)
        if let pdfDocument = PDFDocument(url: url) {

            pdfDocument.write(to: url, withOptions: [PDFDocumentWriteOption.userPasswordOption : "pwd"])

            pdfView.displayMode = .singlePageContinuous
            pdfView.autoScales = true
            // pdfView.displayDirection = .horizontal
            pdfView.document = pdfDocument
        }
    }

Added the line pdfDocument.write() before viewing the file. I was expecting that the file wouldn't be viewed anymore or it would ask a password first before it can be viewed but i can still view it directly as if that line did not exist.

I tried PSPDFKit before and when i add a password protection to a pdf file, when viewing the file it asks a password first and the file in the application storage is locked/encrypted, but that's not what I'm getting when I used this iOS PDFKit new feature for iOS 11 and later.

Your problem that you don't encrypt pdfDocument, you write encrypted copy of pdfDocument to disk, if you read this document from disk, it is will be protected. Example:

if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "pdf_file", ofType: "pdf") {
    let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: path)
    if let pdfDocument = PDFDocument(url: url) {
        let documentDirectory = try! FileManager.default.url(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask, appropriateFor:nil, create:false)
        let encryptedFileURL = documentDirectory.appendingPathComponent("encrypted_pdf_file")

        // write with password protection
        pdfDocument.write(to: encryptedFileURL, withOptions: [PDFDocumentWriteOption.userPasswordOption : "pwd",
                                                             PDFDocumentWriteOption.ownerPasswordOption : "pwd"])

        // get encrypted pdf
        guard let encryptedPDFDoc = PDFDocument(url: encryptedFileURL) else {
            return
        }

        print(encryptedPDFDoc.isEncrypted) // true
        print(encryptedPDFDoc.isLocked) // true

        pdfView?.displayMode = .singlePageContinuous
        pdfView?.autoScales = true
        pdfView?.displayDirection = .horizontal
        pdfView?.document = encryptedPDFDoc
    }
}

I hope this help
